SeaJ OP , in Donald Trump falsely questions Kamala Harris' race as he appears at gathering of Black journalists

Not exactly a great strategy to win over black voters…

The man has zero strategy beyond spewing bullshit and seeing what sticks.

Lemminary ,

I can’t believe there are Black and Latinos voting for this orange turd. And some of them are my ignorant immigrant family. Like, hello??

AFKBRBChocolate ,

Ignorant racists with a poor understanding of government and history come in all colors.

“I didn’t know she was Black until a number of years ago when she happened to turn Black and now she wants to be known as Black. So, I don’t know, is she Indian or is she Black?” Trump said while addressing the group’s annual convention.

What an utter waste of DNA. And that was only the start of all the racist shit he said.

SeaJ OP ,

I’m reminded of Jon Stewart the other day:

Two races in one person‽ If these people ever saw a Pizza Hut-Taco Bell, they’d lose their minds!

Das Racist already covered this issue. www.youtube.com/watch?v=SIt2CdbBo_w

thefartographer ,

I don’t know, is Trump a flaming sack of shit or a racist liar?

😱 Something can be two things at the same time??? Like a billionaire and a fraud??? Or a candidate and a felon???

FlyingSquid ,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

A thought:

If Trump thinks that Kamala Harris should claim she’s Indian because she has an Indian mother, then Barack Obama should claim he’s white for the same reason.

Too bad no one in the press will bring that up to him.

thefartographer ,

I never considered that!

By that same logic, I have been rumored to have slept with all of my friends from high school and every gamer with whom I’ve interacted online

I doubt he’s a billionaire.

werefreeatlast , in Fox host demands video of JD Vance having sex with a couch

Aunty: Oh Vance! My favorite nephew! Come in come in! Sit on the couch with me! What brings you here?

Vance: nobody likes me because I wear makeup like women do and I like to fuck the couch!

Aunty: well worry no more! You can stay with us for as long as you like! There’s just one thing I need to tell you about.

Vance: what is it?

Aunty: your uncle and I have a house policy where we don’t wear any clothes indoors. Is that okay? I’m sure if we talk to your uncle, we can agree to let you fuck a couch too!

Vance proceeds to get complete naked. Uncle comes into the scene and the aunty is already naked too.

Vance: hi uncle!

Uncle: well hello! I see you are getting used to the rules of the house!

Aunty: yes. He also would like it if he could fuck the couch when he feels the need.

Uncle: no problem!

Scene cuts to Vance taking a shower. For more on this please refer to your favorite pornhub show.

“I think it’s disgraceful that I came here in good spirit. I love the Black population of this country, I’ve done so much for the Black population of this country,” Trump said.

He’s a parody of himself. If there wasn’t a real threat behind his existence, I’d happily do nothing but laugh at the ridiculousness of his claims.

FlyingSquid ,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

I like how he said there were “black jobs.” I guarantee you that before someone asked him what black jobs were, he was thinking of things like doorman, shoe-shine boy, bellhop, maid…

Sorry. That’s politically incorrect. The appropriate term for the modern age is “convicted prisoner”

Does that mean Trump is half Black?

EleventhHour ,
@EleventhHour@lemmy.world avatar

Funny you say that.

I was in a nasty argument with my mom last night about her use of the racist slur “illegals”. I told her that people can’t be illegal. She replied that shes not a racist and that they’re illegal because they broke the law. I shot back, “oh, so, since you got that speeding ticket, that makes you an illegal?” “No! They committed a felony!” So I said, “oh, so Trump is a 34 times illegal then?”

She said, “that’s different!”

“Why? Because he’s white? See, that’s why you’re racist.”

She screamed, “fuck you!” and hung up the phone.

lolrightythen ,

Sorry, yo. Good job on keeping it real

EleventhHour ,
@EleventhHour@lemmy.world avatar

She texted me later, saying I was following a “Marxist script”. I texted back, “oh, yeah? What script did Marx write that said brown people were ‘illegal’, but white people weren’t? Was it in the letter to Lincoln praising him for freeing the slaves, or in Das Kapital? Because I must have missed it. Why don’t you send me a copy of where you read that.”

She blocked me.

maccentric ,

I can’t talk politics reason with my folks either.

Being falsely convicted of a crime in central park…

NJSpradlin ,

To acknowledge your comment, to Trump being black in NYC meant that you were guilty.

lolrightythen ,

Are you referring to the good ole days? Back when Bernie was getting the shaft and it was impossible for Trump to win office?

I doubt that I’d have believed the outcome.

plz1 , in R. Kelly petitions U.S. Supreme Court to overturn sex crimes convictions based on statute of limitations

If SCOTUS strikes down the PROTECT Act, it will be a very sad day for the country. It will effectively overturn any conviction that Act was used to secure, though I think his case is probably the most prominent conviction to date. I think he’s only seeking reversal on the Chicago one to use as precedent for the New York one. Or to “try again” if that doesn’t work. When you’re facing 30+ years, can’t hurt to try, I guess…

Krauerking , in Starbucks is reeling as customers go elsewhere, sales decline

I like good tea, not coffee.

So, you know, I have technically always been boycotting Starbucks I guess.

If people really want a caffeine and sugar fix I can’t wait till someone tries a chain of yerba mate places. North America is gonna be wired.

“I didn’t know she was Black until a number of years ago when she happened to turn Black and now she wants to be known as Black. So, I don’t know, is she Indian or is she Black?” Trump said while addressing the group’s annual convention.

There’s some other good stuff in there but that’s the one that stood out to me as new.

FlyingSquid ,

“Now” she wants to be black. As if her father wasn’t Jamaican.

AFKBRBChocolate ,

I’ve heard people seriously saying that Jamaicans aren’t black. Like what the hell?

xmunk , in UAW endorses Harris, giving her blue-collar firepower in industrial states

I think it’s clear that Harris is a better labor pick tha Trump but I think it’s stragically a mistake to do this before the convention and give up the leverage to force a better party platform. There may be things happening behind the scenes but Democrats have a long history of being underwhelming on labor issues (obviously they’re still better than the GOP though).

FlyingSquid ,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

Biden went down to the UAW picket line and addressed them personally. I don’t think it’s really all that surprising that they backed his personally chosen replacement.

NewNewAccount ,

Biden also effectively sided with industry and against the labor unions in the 2022 railroad labor dispute. He’s not exactly squeaky clean here.

FlyingSquid ,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

Okay, but we’re talking about the UAW. He did them a solid, they’re doing one in return.

Rolder ,

Not entirely correct. They did force the railroad workers back to work yes, but, Biden continued to work with them after the fact and got them the sick days and shit they were looking for

NewNewAccount , (edited )

Sick day. One. They were asking for fifteen.

curbstickle ,

Incorrect.

4 + 3 convertible was the followup, the one day plus 14% pay increase and a further 24% guaranteed over 5 years was the early resolution.

NewNewAccount ,

Oh good to know! Thanks for info.

NoneOfUrBusiness ,

Biden continued to work with them after the fact and got them the sick days and shit they were looking for

Nope. He only got them sick day(s). They wanted other things, mainly safety features so trains don't crash as often. The sick days part was the most emphasized because it's easier for laymen to understand, but Biden did not give them what they wanted.

Rolder ,

I’m not certain what exactly they were originally looking for but my point is more that trying to paint Biden as some anti union traitor is plain into factual.

Hildegarde ,

As good as strategic endorsements are, its probably not feasible given union’s structure in the us. I’m not a UAW member, so I may be misinformed on specifics, but these things are usually done as a vote at a union convention, by union members who are volunteering to be a voting delegate on top of their normal job.

Scheduling an emergency meeting to decide on endorsements pending a commitment from a candidate is not something you can reasonably do, especially when the voting membership are volunteers. Unions are democratic organizations, and can’t act quickly enough for strategic endorsements like you propose.

Democrats in the white house means better members on the national labor relations board. That alone is enough to justify an endorsement even without any legislative concessions.

This whole event was a shit show. Tech problems, no one could hear each other. And of course none of the journalists landed any gotcha moments because it's Trump and he has zero shame.

Moobythegoldensock , in Fox host demands video of JD Vance having sex with a couch

Hey guys, it’s time to mature up and admit that Vance probably did not have sex with a couch.

He made love to it. Also, the couch was totally asking for it.

Jimmyeatsausage ,

You know the couch was into it… When the couch doesn’t want it, nature has ways of just shutting all that down.

Moobythegoldensock ,

I heard the couch was dressed like a total loveseat, and wasn’t even wearing a cover.

Nfamwap ,

Lets call it what it is, folks. It was rape. He raped that couch. Just because the couch had a suggestively placed throw, doesn’t make it OK.
